Graduate school is challenging enough without having to navigate a construction site within your programs building. Common construction activity such as increased noise, vibration, and modifications to spaces can be overwhelming, physically and emotionally. If you notice changes in your mood or cognitive functioning (i.e. learning), it might be a good time to connect with mental health supports on-campus.
